Customer Reviews

New generation for Sims 2!
Firstly I'd like to say to all Sims fans that this is NOT your typical Sims gameplay! Forget looking after hunger, sleep etc. in the usual way as does not exsist! All of this is now incorperated into your 'sanity' meter. This is highly confusing to begin with but give it time as it only takes a small time to get used to.

The general jist of the game is to create a popular and profitable hotel along with saving the towns folk from invasions of aliens and robots. (Highly amusing!)

The goals are fairly straight forward once you know what is wanted and there are 7 mini-games for bit of extra cash and variety.

The game is run in 'real-time' which is the only part I would call annoying, my only advice is to save loads of money and buy the new buildings just before to go to bed as this way (provided you sleep for 8hrs) when you wake up your buildings will be complete!

I really enjoyed this game and would recommend it to all!!

Different to the Pc game, but in a good way.
If you're looking at this expecting to find a smaller version of the sims2 pc game, then you will be sorely dissapointed, but for all those looking for an addictive, funny and downright good game for the DS, step right up! this game rewards patience, set in real time, it can be a bit annoying waiting eight hours for a room to be built, but each room that DOES get built has it's own special theme: an art gallery where you can draw your own paintings, a jazz bar to mix your own music and even a secret 'rat cave' where you can become the roving superhero known only as 'the ratticator'. this game never lets up and never ceases to deliver. even after the main game is finished, it rewards those who keep the hotel customers (that's right, your the manager of a hotel) happy. with monthly exclusive items and plenty of side quests, this game is the sim-bee's knees!

THE SIMS 2 ON DS RULES!!!!
Firstly it is absolutely BRILLIANT! All the other reviews on here say basically that it is RUBBISH well they are talking RUBBISH in a nutshell:

You start off with a basically empty hotel then you get a casino and a room or two and then the money starts rollin' in! and you can build new rooms and take on challenges. When you get a lounge you can mix , record and make you own music and it is really very funny and when you get the art gallery you can paint pictures and sell them wich is good.
You can also (when you've built THE VAULT) print money! wich is useful


GET THIS GAME ASAP AS IT IS BRILLIANT
